    I do wonder had Germany taken over most of the world would they by now be telling all "We brought peace and prosperity to a large percentage of the world".

    Not entering the fray - just wondered.

    Suggest you read history, where we brought peace and prosperity to a large percentage of the world.

    I pointed out that National Anthems do not seem to echo words of love and peace. The nations that have done there best to conquer the world /build empires, for the past , what 300 years, read the words from the anthems of Germany , France and Great Britain, 3 nations(taking the UK as a nation) who are nothing at best war mongers. Enslaved and committed genocide on millions.

    Right point out were I have singled out the UK as being the only nation to have committed genocide, if you want to get shitty bring it on!!! Concentration camps well they certainly achieved what they were meant to do during the Boer War. Absentee land lords who let nearly 2millon British citizens starve to death between 1845 >1852. So much for your idea of peace and prosperity.

    Vic,I will even pay your ferry/flight costs if you care to join me and we will go to Dublin and visit some of the pubs and debate with the locals about the benefits of British rule in Ireland. You are very forward at trying to get your point of view, I suspect they may not be very well received. But I am sure being a man of the world you will be able to put you views across very well. I will save myself a few quid as I will only book your ticket as one way, don't think you will need the return ticket.

    Most of the countries colonized by not just UK but other nations, French, Dutch, Portugese were in a far better condition when they left than when they found them.
    Many were by the standards of today uncivilized but were brought to a standard similar to those who colonized them.
    Prosperity flourished and the countries did well.
    The they asked for independence and that is where the corruption began.
    Presidents came to power and often raped the country, greed and corruption took over and that is considered by many the reason for the current change taking place in South Africa.

    Yes some of the colonists may not have done it all by the book, but they made the countries what they became.

    Here in Oz we have tried to bring the Aboriginal community with us, most have, but there is a small element of them, encouraged by the Greens and PC brigade to demand much more.
    They will never be happy with the status quo and will continue with their hatred of the white man.
    Happy daze John in Oz.

    John, they have gone further than that.
    Not just, 'Love, darling, sweetheart or any other term mon endearment.
    Also banned the term husband and wife, must now be partner or spouse, all because they ae concerned the LGBTIQ brigade will complain.
    They have been rightly condemned by many parts of society who have concerns that this will spread to other industries.

    Would you ever for one minute stop and think that the countries that European powers decided to take control off may not have actually wanted to be westernised??? just a thought.
    #43 If you take time to read what has been posted my reference includes Germany, France, UK, and other European nations so what point are you trying to make Des?

    i don't think there is a prosperous country on the planet with clean hands? take a look at the African continent still slavery starvation because of lazy parts that would relief is wanted for nothing Africa could have 3 growing seasons but some of the best land was parcelled up to people who haven't a clue how to manage the land just so a politician could keep power{mugarby} we could list pages of dirty tricks from dealing drugs on an industrial scale for land in china to men rolling up on a jolly boat planting a flag on a beach and saying this is ours many European countries did that but them days are over we could go on and on about history we are still paying the price for the bloody crusades in the middle east we could go round and round greed for land money but the people at our end of the ladder never seen a penny franc mark you name it as i said no one has clean hands that clawed their way to the top and its still going on? just my view.. jp
